Research in Cluj

Since we moved in Cluj last year, I’ve been trying to get more active in research. It is a bit difficult without a research grant, and steps have been slow, but it’s going somewhere. All this time, I had the impression that research in Cluj is rather dead, but I am constantly discovering here and there initiatives and people doing serious research. Since one disabling factor for not being able to perform research is the fact that I don’t know other researchers here, I decided to do something about it :)

So, yesterday I launched a meetup group on research in cluj! We have already 9 people that subscribed and we are planning our first meetup! It will be on the 7th of February at 19:00, but we still need to find a proper location. At the same time, I also launched a facebook group with the same name, and some people joined there as well. So, it seems there is a need for networking and sharing about research in Cluj as well ;)

If you are in the neighbourhood and interested on the topic, please join one of the (or both) groups, and feel welcome to join. We encourage people doing research both in academia and industry to join us ;)
